Surfer Kelly Slater: “It’s sad to see the celebrated division by the ‘virtuous’ vaccinated. If you’re vaccinated why are you concerned/worried about anyone else’s status … unless, of course, it doesn’t protect you? ... So much brainwashed hatred in people’s hearts regardless of vax status.”

This is a disingenuous argument made in bad faith.

I literally don't care if an antivaxxer doesn't take the shot. What I do care is that both of our hospitals and ICUs in my county are 100% full. This is preventing me from having access to emergency medicine. The people in ICU are 99% unvaccinated covid cases. Regular medical vists are very hard to schedule, and elective surgeries are nonexistent. And just try getting an appointment with someone like a pulmonologist or a cardiologist.

I don't care if you're vaccinated or not. But if you want to die, die at home and don't clog up the system. And don't kill my grandmother.

Please stop with this trope.

It's fine for you to believe such fairy tales, but spouting such nonsense just makes you either look really foolish, a true believer, the mark, or all of the above. I'm inclined to believe it's the last.

Maybe the government should lock you in a rubber padded room so that you don't injure yourself and need emergency medicine at all.

Besides that fact that your post is all bullshit, and your county is probably no more full than it was the year before the renamed every flu case "covid", or many years. If they are full, it is full of relatively healthy idiots (in an extremely unhealthy country) who ran in a panic after taking a meaningless test that came up positive, and they are probably as vaxxed as you are.

ICUs have been shut down because they are not profitable and his has been going on for decades. Whole hospital wings, when it isn't whole hospitals, have been shut down to save money and increase profitability, and this also has been going on for decades. Go back to reddit where the kool-aid flows freely.

I guess you missed where I say: "your county is probably no more full than it was the year before the renamed every flu case "covid", or many years.

I supposed you could link to proof of those figures?

I ask because we had similar figures in the UK press and they turned out to be junk.

The vaccinated are getting the virus and going to the hospital to bud

[–]yetanotherone_sigh 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Sure, that is true. But vaccinated people don't end up in the ICU.

Also, my county had a second hospital built in the last 5 years, more than doubling the bed space and ICU bed numbers. The second one is also 100% full.

lol hospitalbed.space

Great site. Obviously can't be trusted. Go with your own experience. Ever try going to an ER for something before covid? Hours long waits. They always ran at capacity for max profits.
